Yes, she was speeding, AND she did have her emergency flashers on, as was clearly seen in the video taken from the cop's own car. That is supposed to be a signal to law enforcement that there is a genuine emergency and if anything, they are supposed to ESCORT the person to a hospital, not stop them! When the sobbing woman begged the cop to let her go, and kept telling him that her father was being taken to the hospital with a heart attack, he told her, "Well, he won't get to see you acting so stupid, will he?" He was on tape in a later interview with a judge stating that he did not believe the woman's story, and felt perfectly justified in drawing his gun on her!
He was placed on "suspension" for FIVE DAYS.
